Molyorbital™ shapes of molecules - electron repulsion theory set

This Molyorbital™ set contains sufficient parts to make 8 easy to self-assemble molecular orbital models demonstrating electron pair repulsion. This set contains sufficient parts to make the eight models shown. The different shapes demonstrate the orientations of the bonding pairs and lone pairs and cover coordination numbers one to six. Lone pairs are represented by brown spheres or brown pear shaped parts. Two extra pear shaped parts are included in the set to enable protonated models to be made (acid/base theory, the formation of H3O+)

The contents are contained within a plastic storage box. The 81 components are enough to make the following models:

hydrogen chloride, linear

beryllium chloride (gas phase), linear

water, bent

boron trihydride, trigonal

ammonia, pyramidal

methane, tetrahedral

phosphorus pentachloride, trigonal bipyramidal

sulfur hexafluoride, octahedral

The Molymod™ system is the original, unique, dual-scale system of high quality low-cost molecular models. These enormously popular sets are ideal for college use but are also used by scientists all over the world. The Molyorbital™ sets complement the Molymod® sets also available from within this shop.

Important notice: Molymod® and Molyorbital™ molecular model and orbital products are scientific educational and visualization aids, and consequently are not suitable for children less than 10 years old.
